I know that some people think it’s sacrilege to alter a guitar, but I LOVE modded guitars. I find that I’ll never bond with a guitar that came out of a factory looking and sounding just like its thousands of identical siblings that came from the same place. That’s why I always buy cheap, used...
It was time to make this guitar mine. It now has real wiring (not circuit board), regular 'ole tuners, (the kind you twist, not charge), strap locks, black screws, and a metal jack plate so it can take a 'rockin and keep on tockin. I previously swapped the brass nut for a tusq nut specially...

This is a stellar example of this guitar. To make it better, it has Tyson Tone P90s. It also comes with the stock pups, but this is what the seller has to say about that:
All of the electronics work as they should, with the aforementioned Tyson Tone Labs pickups and stock Bumblebee tone caps...
Well...the USPS lady just stopped by and made me REAL happy!
